Anyone know what happened to pxlfd.me? I'd created an account in 2019, kind of forgot about it, and the whole site just seems to have disappeared sometime since then... didn't lose anything, but I'm surprised.
There's A LOT of discussion about content moderation right now and very little of it touches on the fact that we've all lived on the big social sites for the last decade-plus thanks to the massively exploitated labor of mostly-invisible moderation workers. The social web at scale wouldn't have happened without these laborers, who in addition to shit wages, have been exposed to literally every imaginable horror.
If we're remaking this world, let's do better on that front.
tl;dr —
1. generate API model with "API Extractor" (microsoft/api-extractor)
2. convert API model to display-ready wire format (greendoc/parse)
3. render the API model using framework of choice (greendoc/svelte, ...)
Particularly with #Svelte, the output can be static HTML, or SSR, or a SPA... you choose. And hopefully the lift to support other frameworks, or just static HTML and markdown, is light enough.
Weekend #projects — I've been frustrated by existing tools for documenting #javascript and #typescript libraries. Won't go into details on the frustrations, but I really want:
1. type-safe JSON representation of API
2. composable pieces to format the API as HTML/MD
Here's where I'm headed:

👋 Hey, friends! I should do an #Introduction
A few things I love:
❤️ creating things on the web
❤️ exploring novel interfaces
❤️ turning data into meaning
❤️ empowering devs with AI
I'm currently exploring novel UIs + playing with ML on GitHub Next (a tiny R&D team within GitHub).
Previously, I did client work with pudding.cool and spent many years building dashboards for startups.
A long time ago, I worked in a lab, training to be a prison psychologist, but that's a story for another day...
